My pseud-anual visit ;P

Hey guys, long time no see.

Real life takes over every time more and more and I cannot complain, but sometimes I wish I could dedicate more time into the site ;(
Also gaming-wise I am not much active, though some gaming light has sparked again thanks to the recent acquisition of a Dreamcast (don't laugh! >P) and finally delecting some gems for this bloody great machine (like Ikaruga, yummies!).

I'd like to thank everyone for making this the great community it is! It has become one of the greatest projects I've participated into throughut the years.

And I bet this also goes as the top shit topic of the year ;P

Cheers and happy shmupping!

Hey man! Nice to see you still kicking!
Isn't the 10th anniversary coming up soon?(the next time you pop by...

)
Think you and Malc should get together and give us all a treat!

Heheh, welcome back Akira-san. Hope that DC gives you some fun and enjoyment in-between those cool VJ gigs that I love hearing about from you. ^_^

You are right
We should do something!

Thanks Icarus for the words. Seems you know what I'm doing ;p

Like appointing Shmups members to update the main site?

Seriously, please! We want to bring it back full swing!

Well it has been a while since we chatted in real-time, mate. (Nearly a year now?) Get in touch. ^_-

Welcome back Akira.

Enjoy the Dreamcast- and here's hoping you've scored Border Down and Under Defeat for it, or that you get ahold of them soon.

Thanks again to you and Malc for a great site.

I checked out Under Defeat, looks interesting. What about Radilgy? Didn't seems as interesting.

Will look for others ;D

egarding the 10th year, we'll have to do something. Would be good to have ideas to see what to do!

Welcome back, Akira! Great to see you again and glad you are enjoying your DC.

Almost 10 years, where does the time go? Seems just like yesterday when Shmups.com had its big 5 year anniversary special.

It's great. It just needs some time for getting used to it.
